Every now and again the doomsayers perk up and run around telling people that SharePoint is on its way out.  That is wholly untrue. Apart from the massive global footprint that SharePoint has which should be indicative enough of its staying power;  I personally spoke to the Director of Engagement & Adoption at Microsoft and asked the question; this is what I was told:

“We believe in our product both in the cloud as a part of Office 365 and on prem as we ready our SharePoint 2016 release. There are only more things to come as we run up to Ignite and the announcements we’ll be making there. SharePoint and the core collaboration and enterprise publishing scenarios that it supports is a part of how we intend to make people more productive. You can definitely tell your customers that. Feel free to reach out if you need any other details that you can’t find on blog.office.com or anything else!”

There you have it.  Now let’s collaborate. 🙂
